BitUtility’s Peacock NFT is making a splash. It envisions a day when you’ll pay your electric bill in Bitcoin the same way you order a pizza. Before you buckle up and head down this crypto-utopia road, let’s pump the brakes and demand some serious accountability. So, great news—real progress toward...
For too long, cryptocurrency felt like a far-off dream. It seemed like a dreamy sci-fi future, obscured by gobbledygook, exorbitant gas fees, and the idea that it was just for crypto nerds and Wall Street traders. What if that’s just about to change, particularly for the dynamic, innovative, start-up culture...
The buzz around the House Republicans' draft crypto bill is deafening in the US, but I'm seeing something else entirely – a potential explosion of creative energy in Southeast Asia. Forget Wall Street giants for a minute. Think of the dynamic artists, musicians, and entrepreneurs producing amazing work in ASEAN...

Certainly not given that Trump himself has promised to transform the U.S. into the “crypto capital of the planet.” Talk is cheap. We need to see action. The actions taken over the next four years...
The atmosphere was electric at Token2049 in Dubai as Meta Earth dropped their ME Network v2.0 to the world. "Community-driven," they declared. "Decentralized future," they promised. As someone who's spent years working with grassroots movements in Southeast Asia, particularly in Myanmar, I can't help but ask: Is this genuine empowerment,...
Meta Earth’s recent ME Network v2.0 launch celebration in Dubai, perfectly timed with Token2049, shouts and ASIA ambitions. A million users onboarded since April – tremendous.
